Barsotti's occupies the Oak Lawn space that formerly housed Carbone's, reopened as a neighborhood Italian-American restaurant by Julian Barsotti. The concept is framed around the story of Southern Italian immigrants pursuing the American Dream, with the restaurant positioning itself as both a continuation of that history and something new.
Homemade pasta and a chicken parmigiana with a devoted following anchor the kitchen's output, the kind of Italian-American cooking suited equally to a regular weeknight and a celebration. Service quality draws mixed reports even as the food and atmosphere get consistent praise.
Michelin named Barsotti's a Selected restaurant in its Texas guide for both 2024 and 2025. It's one of several Dallas restaurants from Julian Barsotti, who also runs Nonna, Fachini, Odelay, and Goodbye Horses.
